Little Boy Blue Died

A Child Beaten to Death

By Monea LaTurPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read
Little Boy Blue has a friend. His name is Death. He has a safe place. It is his casket. His only escape at the tiny age of four…

Little Boy Blue is this boy's name

Into this world, this little boy came

The bruises, the cuts, the mental pain

Too scared to talk and dare not complain

Likely to die before he is five

Engulfed in fear that he will survive

Blow by blow, his daily beating

Over and over, it keeps repeating

You and I know Little Boy Blue

Brought to us when we were just two

Little did we know that he was real

Ultimately feels what we won't feel

Empty, and hated, as he hits the floor

Dies at an age, just shy of four

Imagine his pain, just before

Echoing loudly, how hard he cried

Drowning in blood; broken inside.
